Round 15

Well the season has come to an end & just as I asked from the boys we went out with a bang. We have obviously improved as we have now beaten 2 sides convincingly that beat us the 1st time round. The total improvement from every player comes down to the boys willingness to learn. The year was full of fun & pride I could not have asked for a better group of kids. Personally I want to thank the boys for accepting Morgan as one of their own he has had his best year of footy & fun with you boys. From a Coaching point of view I will say this, we have a team of champion young men who have represented the Club, themselves & their parents with absolute integrity be very proud boys. To the parents who are normally harder to win over than the boys I can honestly say that I have made many friendships that will last long after footy. I was welcomed into the fabulous family that is u/11 blue. Thank you very much for allowing me to coach your boys I loved every minute. To Ange Bellisimo thank you mate for taking on the role of Team Manager an absolute god send for me. Laurie for being my Assistant Coach & sounding board, mate I thought we worked well together & look forward to working together hopefully next year. Mick for being my runner every week its a non thankful job mate but very appreciated from me & the boys. To all the parent helpers who I will go into more detail presentation night thank you very much. Now for the game we played good, strong, tough footy & when we do that we win. A couple of highlights were Benny playing his 50th game & kicking a goal after playing all year in the backline & I think this maybe my favourite highlight for the year with Braedon kicking his 1st ever goal & everyone of his team mates swamping him to enjoy it with him. Every one of the 22 boys played their part on Sunday & the song was sung with much gusto.
